Alice from Wonderland (An attempt at Whimsical Poetry inspired by Lewis Carrol's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)

Whilst I was walking in the park,
I did suddenly espy,
A hole in a tree 'bout 6 inches high.
Cut clean into the bark.

At first I watched in wonderment
As a girl stepped out the door
But to my surprise she grew in size
The second her feet hit the floor.
My mouth gaped in puzzlement.

How could this be so?
What could happen
To make her grow?
When suddenly I heard a tappin'

The tappin' came from the tiny door,
Out of which stepped a faerie
The faerie folk stepped clean out of that withered oak
And it was kinda scary
To see a faerie straight out of tales of lore.

When suddenly I did ope my eyes
I looked out from my bleary countenance
And boy was I sure surprised
That straight from my childhood experience
Stood Alice straight from Wonderland!
